The closed captioning continues to spell Cain as "Kane", so bizarre.

I admit that on the spectrum of stories I didn't expect to see, "Amenadiel gets the clap!" ranked right up there.

The show can't seem to figure out what to do with Charlotte or Mazikeen this season. Know what would help move things along? Chloe learning the truth! That would move things along!

I like Charlotte sticking up for Ella. That was nice because she seemed genuinely pissed off about her getting hurt and not just doing this because of her fear of Hell. So it seems like maybe her character is making some progress towards genuine redemption.

Amenadiel getting the clap is amusing, but it was handled kinda cheaply by letting him off the hook with the false results.

But yeah this season is super draggy.They really need to get things going already.

I agree with what everybody has to say, but in spite of all of the problems, there is something about Tom Welling in this role that I really like, even if I can't quite put my finger on what it is.

Yes to Charlotte finally doing something good without really thinking about it and agonizing about it, even if (or maybe especially) since it was done in a slightly vicious way. That's going to have to be the direction she travels in if she wants to redeem her character but still remain true to herself.

I'm surely not the only one dreading the Maze takes revenge on Linda plot that's coming up, right? Again if people were just a bit straighter and open with each other these stupid story arcs could be entirely avoided.

Arg. Those last two minutes with Linda and Amanadiel were so irritating. The moment I saw them in a public place holding hands while they break up, I thought "I bet Maze is watching." Then I thought, "No, that is the oldest and cheesiest sitcom trope there is. It's tired, lame and predictable. This show will surely not go there - it's got a budget and everything!"

Then I saw Maze and said, "God damn it!"
